Anything to bring the Northerners back to power, innit Keep trying OP. Has anyone wondered why all of a sudden we have so many "Christians" online seeing nothing wrong with Buhari/Fashola combination? Statements like "i am a christian and all my families are Christians" bla bla bla bla..... Why not Fashola as the President then a South southern as the vice president? No, una want Buhari and Fashola... No matter how hard you guys try Buhari would never rule a united Nigeria again, shikena 42 Likes 1 Share |

In the southwest, we've grown above religious differences. We are wel above ethnics card. Jonathan- president. David mark- senate president. Ike ekwerenmadu- deputy senate president Aminu tambuwal-speaker HOR. These are people who are nigerians. Yoruba will choose what choice is good for them. Hausa and ibo will do same. at the end, whosoever have the best or average from all regions carry the day. Let each region enjoy its freedom of association. God be with niger-area. 5 Likes |

toludadon: Your postulation is totally wrong. Your perspective is patently faulty. Am a christian from the SW and i will never vote for such a ticket at all. Fashola is also not performance personified. The problem with those who see him as a performer is that a man who has been destitute of a home for decades would see a man that offers him a narrow kiosk made of polybags as an angel. 40 Likes |

SamIkenna:Great reasoning! One of the best I have read on this forum. This will be my first comment ever about a muslim/Muslim ticket. And honestly, it is an insult to Nigerian Christians. There can be no excuse for it. In a country of over 170 million people, there are many Christians who are well qualified to be on the ticket. Just in case the proponents and supporters of this idea do not see how bad it sounds, let me put this in perspective for you all: Can you imagine for a moment what a christian/Christian ticket will cause in this country? 27 Likes |

My opinion: voting buhari and fashola will amount to automatic islamization of Nigeria which may bring about political and religious unrest. My advice to fashola is failure is contagious,buhari is conceivably a serial loser. Dont start with him!!! 9 Likes |

I do not think APC will ever want to convince Nigerians to vote for such combination after all the labels of pro Islam tag PDP has put on it. Taken that Buhari is popular and fo them to wrestle power from PDP they need his popularity and millions of his foot soldiers, but it will be a death trap to field two Muslims in the coming election. This can sway votes in favor of GEJ and nail APC in the mud.As good as it may seem to the Yoruba to have a Muslim son not minding his religious leaning,it may back fire around middle belt states where Muslim elements are believed to be behind inter ethnic wars. APC need a strong Christian to deputize Buhari and even occupy prominent seats in their government. I think such a strong Christian should evn come from the Eastern part f the Yoruba nation who must be able to match the character of Idiagbon and whose mindset is proactive. Buhari is honest and may likely be among the few incorruptible Nigerians but he needs loads of human resources around him that can help in building an economic team and serve Nigeria well which Buhari may not be able to do all by himself. The much circulated proposal of RCCG pastor will give much credibility to Buhari candidature but if such were to come from say Ekiti or Ondo state, it will be a super winning formula in winning other elections in those states. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Just look at Yoruba politics. How many Christians have become governors in Yoruba states since 1998? Compare that to the number of muslims that have become governors. Yorubaland is at least 60% Christian. Why are Christians not voting Christians into office? Have they being told to back down. Muslims seem to love the political power than the Christians. Fashola is a bad leader. This is the same man who wanted to tax church donations but was stopped from carrying out the dastardly act. Christians now feel inferior to muslims when they see muslims controlling things. Christians if you want to see Christian governors and officials in power vote for Christian candidates and don't vote for muslims. 13 Likes |

In as much as I like GMB's disposition towards corruption(the bane of Nig. Economy) and Fashola as a performer... Muslim\Musilim ticket will only spoil his chances. Before now, APC has been labeled as a muslim party. Religion is a very volatile issue to nigerians so APC shouldn't even try to comprise on that ground. It must be a christian VP, I have 2 or 3 suggestion for themn if they can convince them for a better Nigeria. 1. OBY EZEKWEZELE 2. Bath Nnaji 3.Okorocha or Amechi( but Amechi talkd too much, he has more enemies and politics is a game of numbers) 4.

loco4love: fo0l! Your religious politics is dead on arrival in SW and will most certainly work against you. Since you know so much about politics of religion in SW can you pls tell us when was the last time a muslim governed Ogun, Ondo, Ekiti and Osun (before Aregbesola's proved that religion is not relevant in SW politics by winning a christian opposition in a predominantly christian state). People in SW don't even realize that these states have been predominantly governed by christians for decades because it doesn't matter to us. All we want is capable and performing leaders. That is why SW remains the only zone no party (except APC recently) can say it has it locked down. We sweep out mediocre govs at the earliest democratic chance. A typical example is the case of Oyo that has never returned a siting gov IRRESPECTIVE OF RELIGION. BTW on a side note to those spreading the Pastor Bosun's message of Islamisation, Tinubu and Fashola are both muslims and both are married to practising christians. In fact Tinubu's wife was a close friend to Late Pastor Bimbo of blessed memory. Have you ever heard the wives were forcefully converted to islam? The truth is Islamisation will not happen in Nigeria, at least Not in South Wesst. 19 Likes 1 Share |

[size=13pt]I am a southerner and a christian. We have long held the belief that it does not matter the ethnic group or religion of the aspirant, as long as he is competent to do the job. But the manner in which the north conducted themselves from the time Y'ar Adua passed on has been shocking and disappointing. I now clearly identify a less refined (and divisive) sect of northern politicians, a group people like Sanusi seemed to seamlessly align themselves into without any formal meetings, due to the kind of people they are naturally and also a group Buhari most definitely falls into, on the extreme end In the light of all that has transpired from that time till now, it becomes extremely difficult (more like impossible) for me to vote for a man like Buhari, and honestly, while I am a PDP supporter, I am a fan of Fashiola. But his alignment with a person like Buhari will cause me to think that he perhaps has a few things in common with Buhari. In my view, it casts a slight taint on the person of gov Fashiola. Finally, it does not matter if combined, they will do well. The truth is that considering the current state of extremist islamism at home and abroad, no one wants to encourage any kind of fanatism amongst local or international muslims concerning Nigeria. We know that these people do not think well. A double muslim leadership will inspire new thoughts in their minds and provide fuel for the distorted quest these extremists have, a quest they make no pretense about.[/size] ~ South-South Voice 24 Likes |

Mogidi:I don't think APC is even bothering with the SS/SE. We all know GEJ will clear the votes in those areas. APC only needs SW, the core north and some of the North east/north central. And if you think the Christians in the north will vote GEJ en mass then you are on a long thing. A good number of people in that zone have it in for GEJ. They believe his administration has a hand in boko haram or is deliberately not doing something to end the killing. Buhari/Fashola ticket is a masterstroke that PDP seriously need to worry about. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Omimah:Please define religious intolerance, did wee not vote Abiola/Kingibe ticket? Have you ever heard of any religious crisis in the South east. The fact is that so much has happened to South Easterners in recent years in d name of religion that we can't afford to just fold our hands, wether we like it or not, religion is a serious political tool in dis country and every party must recognise that, in as much as I don't want us to mix religion and politics yet I can't just wish it away because it is deep rooted in this country. The most religious intolerant region in this country is the North. At every slight provocation they kill and maim our people yet you folks want to force down a muslim/muslim ticket down our throat, my brother if u re in my shoes you won't accept it.
